I saw that as well, but the link goes no where and if you search on Amazon, this doesn't come up. I think the link you've got is simply a picture and the item is no longer available.

Thanks for your help, though...

Call up Sports One in Cookeville. Their number is (931) 526-4316. Bob and Tina are the owners. They specialize in UT memorabilia. They might not have it, but they know a lot of collectors and could help point you in the right direction.

The second one is very similar but the one I have that's been damaged is about twice the size of this one.

Choices and options are going to be scarce...thanks, though!

Sorry it happened. Hate when something that means so much to you gets damaged like that. Hope you find another one and get Phil to sign it.

Can you post a picture of yours or is it too damaged? That would help the search gurus know if some are still looking. Just a thought.

Ultimate Draft Rank: Which schools produce the most draft talent?

16. Tennessee Volunteers

Ultimate Draft score: 955.6

Total players drafted, 2009-18: 66 (see Tennessee's first-round picks).

Biggest draft-producing sports: Women's basketball, softball, football

Tennessee has produced a good number of draftees in a variety of sports, from football (26) to women's basketball (16) to baseball (13 in the first 10 rounds) to softball (7). The football program is in the midst of a dry spell but has still produced NFL talent. After making the College World Series in 2001 and 2005, the baseball team has also fallen on hard times. The same can't be said for women's basketball, which is one of the best programs in the country. The Lady Vols have made the NCAA tournament every year since 1982 and have won eight championships, including titles in 2007 and 2008.

I'll try to do that. It didn't get crushed, but a lot of the detail on it was damaged and is too small to repair without it looking obvious. Plus, I have an OCD vein running through my body.

I discovered what had happened about 10 minutes before I left the house for work. When I thought about posting something on VN, I told myself I should have taken a photo.

Slowly starting to feel better about this team.

Have heard some good news about the QB progression especially. You’d be surprised how backward some of Butch’s teaching of things like throwing progression and timing was.

One good thing about some of your earlier pessimism is that I believe that you would not post this without some solid info. Thanks for bringing it.

Thanks. Funny thing is we're dealing with a raccoon which has accessed our attic over the past few weeks. We've hired an animal control company to help us get rid of it and they were out this past Tuesday, so we've been keeping our ears open for any noises that might indicate it's still around. Sure enough, about 4 a.m. this morning, my wife wakes me up saying she just heard something. Turns out, she heard the shelf fall but I didn't discover it until I walked into the office to get a file right before I was leaving for work. I then saw the shelf, books and the other items all over the top of the file cabinet and floor. First thing I went for was the replica but I knew it was going to be damaged. Much of the detail on it was very small and rather fragile.

My daughter got to know Phil when she was at UT, so it would probably be easy to get him to re-sign something. Now, if I can only find a good replacement!

You should look up some artists that specialize in miniatures online. You might be able to find somebody who could repair it, the work that some artists can do on restorations are amazing
